The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
OK - I'm pretty educated but (as the JDK will tell you) Physics isnt really my thing so here's an open question.
Person A says to Person B "I've just seen Person C downstairs". Person B says "That's impossible - Person C is out of town, so unless Person C is a dead dog, Person C cant be in two places at once" Person A says "Ah, a Physics joke, you're very funny"
Needless to say, I dont get it - any thoughts?
ta in advance!

It's a very poor play on the Schrodinger's Cat experiment which is designed to prove that by observing an object you force it into being into one state or another. He stated that if a cat is in a box it could be either dead or alive and it is only forced into one state or another by opening the box and having a look.
It's a vastly simplified example used to illustrate his theories.
So, observation forces and object into a state. Not a "place" as the "joke" describes.
As such the joke is 1) not funny and 2) has the theorem it is using arse backwards.
Schrodinger was the first thing that spung to mind for me too, but as Hengle says it doesn't quite fit.
It may also be referencing Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle - I only say that because there's a breed of Doberman called a Heisenberg and the Principle itself is in the right ball park. I think i'm reaching even further.
Where exactly did you come across this 'joke'. Perhaps a direct quote might make it funnier - there may be a specific play on words in there that makes more sense. Maybe the writer is cleverer than we thought.
